upon Tyne Central on 14th February 2019 to Question <a href="https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-question/Commons/2019-02-11/219418/"

analysis and stakeholder engagement as part of their Open Access Review, including
with researchers and publishers, and will set out a policy position for consultation
in due course. UKRI’s mission is to work in partnership with universities, research
organisations, businesses, charities and Government to create the best environment
for research and innovation to flourish and to create social and economic impact.
The Open Access Review will continue under these principles, and the issues raised
by the hon. Member are all being considered by UKRI as part of the ongoing process.</p><p>The
Department is working closely with UKRI on Open Access and will continue to do so
after the announcement of the outcomes of the review which is expected in Spring 2020.</p>
